Problem installing from tarball

I'm installing arch-linux from rescuepro using this guide; https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/In … ting_Linux using the bootstrap image.

But when i do arch-chroot, i see this warning:

/usr/bin/bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_US.UTF-8)

And when I use pacstrap, it appears this error several times. Also when pacstrap compiles the linux kernel i see this error:

bsdcpio: Failed to set default locale

I have tried to do this before use pacstrap:

pacman -S sed grep gzip
ls /usr/share/i18n/charmaps/ | grep UTF
echo 'en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8' > /etc/locale.gen
echo 'LANG=en_US.UTF-8' > /etc/locale.conf
locale-gen

but the problem persists.

Can someone help me? Thanks in advance.

Re: Problem installing from tarball

You need to use a text editor to uncomment your locale in locale.gen the run # locale-gen and change your locale.conf to match....why are you using rescuepro though?

Re: Problem installing from tarball

I already did that:

pacman -S sed grep gzip
ls /usr/share/i18n/charmaps/ | grep UTF
echo 'en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8' > /etc/locale.gen
echo 'LANG=en_US.UTF-8' > /etc/locale.conf
locale-gen

I can only use rescuepro because it's a remote server, rescuepro is that all I can use in netboot.
